Ripe Jackfruit Cake / Pansache Dhonas is a delicious cake made with ripe jackfruit and rava or semolina.
Ingredients:
2 cups jackfruit pulp
1 cup grated coconut
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup rawa/semolina
1 cup jaggery
2 tsp cardamon powder
10 chopped cashewnuts
5-10 chopped almonds
10 raisins
Procedure:
1) Roast the rawa till it is light brown or till aroma wafts into the air. Keep aside. Let it cool for atleast 20 minutes. Remove the jackfruit seeds and put them into a mixer and make a pulp out of it.
2) Mix all the other ingredients and put them into a flat baking dish.
You can either steam this cake or you can bake it.
I steamed the cake for 20 mins using double boiler method.
Then I kept a frying pan, spread 2 tablespoon ghee on it and fried the cake on both sides. Alternatively you can microwave this cake for 30 mins at 180C.
Insert a knife in the center of the cake, if it comes out clean, it means that the cake is done.
Also try watermelon rind cake, eggless banana cake with sugar, eggless banana rava cake with jaggery.

I have just backed it, it is beautiful, thanks for nice recipe, I used half cup sugar ,because i do not like jaggery.
Nice & simple recipe. My family enjoyed it very much. What does double boil mean.
Suhasini double boil means, keep one small utensil with the actual contents inside a bigger utensil with some water and to boil this.
Anonymous, you can add sugar 🙂
I tried this cake yesterday. Instead of double boiler i baked the cake. It was very nice. everything was perfect. But baking required more than 30 mins. Approx 40 mins.
Nice recipe, I tried it and my husband liked it. Thanks so much.

Hi Raksha, can we make similar cake with ripe banana too? Since jackfruits are not available the whole year round. Please can you let me know. Thanks
Yes Jewel, you can.
Can you freeze jackfruit cake. Brought one home and would like to keep it until Easter.
I am not sure, you can try freezing and later microwave it.
